Reasons for recommendation

Nelipots is a well-established quirky Micro Bar based on Chapel Street in the heart of Chorley Town Centre. The owner, is applying for the Retail and Hospitality Grant which is open to businesses in this sector for a limited period.

They are planning to undertake an internal refurbishment of the business and is applying for new chairs to increase the seating capacity and new shelving and mirrors to give the Bar a fresher new look and also will be refurbishing the toilet facilities in the customer toilets.

Other options considered and rejected

The alternative option is not to pay the Grant. Without this Grant they would not be able to proceed with the project. This could have a long-term effect to the future of the Business, given that they need extra seating in order to boost lost trade.
